Jamie's Ministry of Food

07"The aim of this book is to completely inspire people who have no interest in food to have a go" - Jamie Oliver. Sixty years ago food was in short supply and malnutrition rates were high. "The Ministry of Food" was set up to teach the public how to make the best use of the food available to them. Fast forward to the present day, where we have unlimited choices and plenty of food, yet we're living in a world of junk food, additives and preservatives. Our war is now against obesity, as most people have little or no idea about how to cook and what makes a balanced diet. We need to learn from the past. We need to look back at the way our grandmothers and great-grandmothers cooked - wholesome, tasty food that was simple and quick to prepare. If you're a complete beginner in the kitchen, Jamie's promise to you is that you'll be making some great dinners within hours of reading his book. A little knowledge and a few basic tools can go a long way, and this book is your first step...01Jamie Oliver startete 1998 seine phänomenale Karriere als jüngster TV-Koch der BBC mit der Koch-Kultserie "The Naked Chef". Die Briten sind hin und weg von seiner "nackten", das heißt einfachen und köstlichen neuen Küche.
